Liao Zhai Zi is silent

Chapter 52

Ask him how clear is it? Come for the active water.

Although the gods in the river were disturbed, the flow of running water into the ditch still caused the people in the village to exclaim.

Those who beat gongs, drums, and set off firecrackers all dispel a lot of bad luck.

The water from the ditch was poured into the reservoir, and the water in the pond gradually filled up, but it was still a little muddy now, so it will be fine after two days.

Lin Zhuming "inscribed" the three pools respectively.

The three pools were originally "dragonfly pointing water caves", which are suitable for private houses. There are water veins at the bottom, which can bless future generations with good fortune, prosperity and longevity.

Lin Zhuming called one of them "Qingfuyuan", "Fangtangjian" and "Donghai Pool".

The names of the three pools correspond to Fu Lu Shou respectively.

After Lin Zhuming finished writing, the stonemason carved it out and stood it beside the stele.

The three ponds got their name, and they immediately stored the wind and breathed in the air. Lin Zhuming felt a little comfortable spring breeze blowing over his face, and it was cool for a while, suppressing the hot and dry weather.

It's just that the water filling of the ditch is still a bit slow, it's almost dark, and it hasn't been finished yet, but this is running water, so I'm not afraid.

But tomorrow will be Qingming, so Lin Zhuming has to go back, but the surrounding villagers also know that the Qingming Dharma will be held tomorrow.

Lin Zhuming's prestige in this area can be said to be "highly respected" after he presided over the excavation of the reservoir and diversion of water into the canal.

"Back to the Longevity Palace, Lin Zhuoming didn't practice as usual, but started setting up the dojo at night."

The surrounding trees are surrounded by "grass ropes", and only a door is left at the "crossing".

The "mantra" copied by Zhao Zhongxin hung on the straw rope, but it was used to maintain the "mandala".

The Dharma altar has also been raised, and Zhao Zhongxin set it up for a day today.

On both sides of the altar, there are three tables on each side. On the tables are "nectar" in full bloom.

Two buckets of "fried rice".In addition, there are green balls, rice cakes, and rice.

There are also a large number of "bright lights" that have been filled with sesame oil and lit.

A "fire tower" built of "bricks, stones, and tiles" is placed in the middle. At midnight, this fire tower will be lit and cannot be extinguished until the end of the Fa Conference.

Next to the fire tower, there are two large iron tanks, and the inside of the tin tanks also needs to be ignited. It will burn for three days and three nights and cannot be extinguished.

In addition, there are a large number of card tablets that have been pasted on the wall or on the boards. These are the tablets of the three generations of family members sent by the nearby villagers, or the rich man Zhou.

In addition, there are prepared "scriptures" written on yellow paper, which are "printed", not copied by themselves, but distributed to believers. After leading the believers to read the scriptures, they are burned.

In front of the six tables, there are golden boys and jade girls, paper men and paper horses, which are arranged on both sides and extend to the "entrance".

And on the "Road", there are four "Qinghua Yinhun Banners" in total, which are on the four must-pass roads in the southeast, north, and west of the Taoist temple.

Among them, the north and south are "blue banners", and the east and west are "white banners".

Under the banner, there is a small "niche" built by three bricks. In the niche, there is a cardboard that either reads "Receive and guide the nameless aborted baby spirits from the ten directions", or "Receive and guide the homeless wandering spirits from all directions."

Each has incense candles for worship, and because many lonely souls and wild ghosts rushed to eat in the fields by the roadside, they were quickly burned out.

Lin Zhuming made another hexagram before he arrived. After the Sansheng hexagram, he began to print "Jade Emperor Tongbao". Huang Tong Bao.

After printing, Lin Zhuming hurriedly wrote various "comments".

"Begging Cizun to super-elevate the lonely souls of the ten directions in this realm and others to go to the fairy world with the experience of hearing and hearing, and praying for the cloud script Lingwen to transcend the nine ghosts, and the golden script and jade characters explain the souls of the three paths... .”

This is an essay written to "Taiyi Saves the Suffering Heavenly Venerable".

There are also essays written to the "Jade Emperor" and essays written to the magistrate for pardoning the emperor.

After writing these essays, it was already "Midnight".

Lin Zhuming asked Zhao Zhongxin to light the fire tower, all the lamps, and the "iron cans".

Lin Zhuming began to knock on the "wooden fish", which is also a Taoist magic weapon.

The Fa conference has now begun.

"Amulet of life and communication, benefit and light nine springs. Three souls go to God, seven souls listen to the spirit chapter. Three journeys away from the long night, five sufferings are relieved. The sea of ​​evil will stop the waves, and the hearing of the Dharma will reach the heavens."

This is false words.

After Lin Zhuming opened his mouth, all lonely souls and wild ghosts in "Tongjing Town", that is, within the jurisdiction of the "Longevity Palace", were attracted, wandering around in a daze.

The Earth Temple at the entrance of the village was closed, and the God of Earth inside seemed not to show his power today, so he assisted in the extradition.

And three quarters after Zishi, the dark wind blows, and the gate of the underworld opens.

After death, the soul of heaven returns to heaven, the soul of earth enters the grave, and the soul of man descends to the underworld. According to the judgment of the underworld, one can either settle in the underworld, or go to hell to suffer, or be reincarnated, or have enough merit to become a Yin god.

This Ching Ming Festival was originally just a sacrifice to the souls of the earth, but at this time, the gates of ghosts are closed, and human souls can also come out of the underworld.

Among them, outside Nanjing City, at a certain mass grave, the gate of ghosts was closed, but they saw Chuichuidada, many paper figurines came out carrying a scarlet sedan chair.

An old ghost like a matchmaker guards the side of the sedan chair.

"囍"

Twelve paper figurines walked forward carrying the "囍" character.

These paper figurines have white faces and red cheeks, artificially smeared stiff smiles, and every move is uniform, not very agile.

Then came some golden boys and girls, holding flower baskets and scattering flowers, but looking carefully at those flowers, they were actually pieces of old paper money, only dyed red.

Then there are those who beat gongs, drums, and suona, for fear that others will not know that a "big man" has come out here.

The sedan chair came out of the ghost gate, followed by a large number of "maids", "mother-in-law", "nurse" and "little servant", and they left the gate together in a mighty way.

"Chengtianjianguo Simin Shengfu Mingling ordered me to wait here to welcome Her Royal Highness Princess Kunxing." I saw some ghost soldiers and ghosts in costumes with the word "Ya" knelt down one after another.

"The Minister of Baoquan Bureau Qian Fa paid a visit to Her Royal Highness Princess Kunxing."

"Freedom of ceremony" a cold female voice sounded from the sedan chair.

"The princess came to the mortal body. We have already found it. Please follow me to return to the sun."

"Don't be in a hurry, I haven't seen the scenery of the mortal world for a long time, and now I'm going to respond to Tianfu, and I'm going to take a good look."

"Yes, princess." Those yin soldiers and ghost generals led Princess Kunxing and began to "parade" around the city of Nanjing.

It's just that Princess Kunxing opened the sedan chair curtain, and seeing Ying Tianfu's century-old changes, she couldn't help feeling cold and sad.

The moon was cold and the dew was heavy, the doors of Wanjia were locked tightly, and the sound of the watch came, but no one could be seen.

When passing through Tongjing Town, suddenly there was a passage of scriptures, and a soul banner was drawn.

Luanjia hesitated slightly, and Princess Kunxing said, "You guys also prepared this?"
